321. Deputy Tom Fleming asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine if he will allow farmers to submit their single farm payment applications to their local district veterinary offices in view of the fact that it will speed up the process, as farmers are under pressure as a result of the fodder crisis, many of whom have to currently travel very long distances to be able to hand in their forms at central offices; if he will take into consideration that the online service is not a viable option for a large number of farmers who need a Department office within a realistic commutable distance for applications as complex and as important as the single farm payment and who urgently require their payment; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
